6. I'm always intrigued by just who was considered to play the part that was finally assigned to the one we see on screen. In Hollywood, I am sure many names get bandied about but it usually comes down to a select few candidates.

10. In ending on a bittersweet note: Kim, who is now wildly intrigued, and probably in love with Edward, asked him to do something to which his sad reply was that he couldn't. What did she ask him to do?
